Chatham, March 29, 1890.--The funeral of Mr. Darwin Sykes, took place at the house of his son-in-law, Mr. Fred. Woodcock, yesterday, Rev. A. G. Cole officiating.  Mr. Sykes had been on a visit to J. H. Ferris and appeared in his usual health and spirits.  On Wednesday after dinner he started for home, leading a dog.  Before he got out of sight the string by which he was leading the dog broke, and the dog slipped through the fence into Mr. Victor Cloos’s meadow.  Mr. Sykes climbed over the fence and started to run to touch the dog.  He fell down, got up, fell again, got up and staggered along a few steps and fell over backward.  Mr. Orren Rice stood looking at the old man, and when he saw him fall backward he ran for assistance, but on reaching him he was dead.  Mr. Sykes was formerly a resident of Chatham, owning the farm where C. E. Beach now lives.  He had for several years lived at Westfield, but lately he had lived with his only living child, Mrs. Fred. Woodcock.  His other child was Mrs. J. H. Ferris, long since deceased.  He always visited Mr. Ferris the same as though he was still his son-in-law.  Mrs. Sykes died several years ago.  Mr. Sykes was 78 years of age.  His place of nativity is now known to me.  Echo.  (Tuesday, April 1, 1890, The Wellsboro Agitator, Wellsboro, Tioga Co, Pa.)
